nice shots, Marcel!

Took a few more shots and removed (as much as I could) the distracting background in order to produce IMHO a more catching pic.
D600, reversed 50 1.8 AF-D.

Thief caught in the act with a mouthful.

Canadian insects must be much less fearful than their US counterparts - much like the citizenry. LOL Very nice close-up shots, Marcel.

July 20th. A few shots from our cycling ride today. I only brought my 28m with the D7000 and did miss my 18-200. But I wanted to do it this way. We rode for about 40 km and got to a country cheese fair.

Selfie

I forgot our group shot without me cause I was behind the cam. See selfie in previous post.

July 21st, Still life from this morning.

Last friday we went to an outside projection of The General with Buster Keaton and a live pianist (fortunately an electronic keyboard piano imitation).

Took this shot to practice twilight zone (reference to the zone system).

July 23rd's piano person of the day. Completely backlit with some incandescent lights mixed in, I had my 35 manual focus lens and I mis focused...

So I had to resort to filters to try to hide it...

July 24th. Few close-ups with the D700. All work was done from JPEG files.

Love the colors of the blue flower!

July 25th, After waiting, waiting and around a hundred shots, I finally got something acceptable for my daily shot. Extreme crop from the D600 at iso 1600.

July 26th, I will post these for now since I tried to do some shots that will involve focus stacking and I have to go back to tutorials before I can process them. Maybe tonight or tomorrow morning early.
So, these two for now.

 

[Marcel]

Here is my first focus stacking trial shot. Only 2 exposures with D600 and Sigma 105 macro.

 

[Marcel]

And I'm working for the "Fire" weekly challenge but it seems I got there too late.

 

[Just-Clayton]

I got some time on my hands to see every ones pictures. You have a nice selection. I always enjoy the piano tuning shots

 

[Marcel]

Second focus stacking attempt. I still will need to improve. Seems I'm not completely covering my grounds.
